Special diets at daycare centres and schools

We provide the special diet meals served on the basis of a medical certificate at daycare centres and schools. In addition to offering dairy-free and lactose-free meals, we also consider food allergies and other health-related special needs.

If your child needs to observe a special diet, you can provide a medical certificate to the daycare centre director or to school or educational institute staff. This way, the information will also be passed to our food services.

A medical certificate is not required for a low-lactose diet, vegetarian diet, vegan diet or a diet based on religion grounds.

The need for a special diet should be reviewed regularly, and any changes should be communicated to the daycare centre or school. If there are no dietary changes, you need not submit a new special diet form. We will continue to follow the information on your previous form.
